"Bylsma’s job was in jeopardy after the Bruins swept Pittsburgh last spring, but he was retained. This year, he guided the U.S. men’s Olympic team into the semifinals in Sochi, breezing through the first four games. Then Team USA failed to record a goal in two flat losses to Canada and Finland. Bylsma is not one to yell and scream, and there was a telling scene on the bench during the series when he and Crosby exchanged words before the coach patted himself on the chest, a gesture most observers took to indicate that he was saying, “my bad.” Michael Jordan was a superstar, but he still answered to Phil Jackson because he respected him. Joe Torre held sway with Derek Jeter. Bill Belichick can still do it with Tom Brady. If there isn’t an available coach out there who has the clout to do that with Crosby – Mike Babcock and Joel Quenneville are spoken for – the Penguins need someone who can develop that sort of relationship with Sid the Kid over time, because the captain is still just 26, albeit a somewhat crabby 26. Crosby has the best backhand in the game, but he whiffed on a rebound – and an open net – midway though the first period. Later in the same frame, he took a lead pass on his backhand and appeared to have New York defenseman Marc Staal beaten for a semi-breakaway. Then as Crosby cut quickly to his forehand, losing Staal’s check in the process, he let the puck slide off his stick. It has become a familiar sight in the postseason to see Crosby shaking his head, staring at the ice and moping on his way back to the bench after a failed scoring attempt. Take a random shift in the second period, when Rangers defenseman Anton Stralman sealed off a puck-carrying Evgeni Malkin along the boards. Crosby was circling to Malkin’s right. Then he circled again, turning his back to the play in frustration, allowing the Rangers to leave him and Malkin behind as they started an odd-man rush in the other direction. Not acceptable." http://nhl.si.com/2014/05/14/new-york-rangers-beat-pittsburgh-penguins-game-7/
